My girl Paige was carrying on and on about neeeeding a bento for lunch today. "You haven't made me a bento in practicality forever and ever!" she whined. Poor thing. ;-) But it was easy (and fun!) enough to dish up a couple cute lunches before preschool.

My little car lovin' boy was thrilled with his car sandwich. He said "honk honk!". So cute. :)

note: The Australia cutter is part of the not-released-yet "Landwiches" set of Lunch Punches. They are not available for sale, but this Aussie one was part of a promotion for Bega cheese that took place in Australia several months ago. I was lucky enough to get one of those ones.

Corey, I can't remember where the koala cookies came from! They are a Japanese thing, same sort of small box as the Hello Panda cookies. I had to have picked them up at either World Market or possible when I was in CA in October. I did hop into a Japanese dollar store while there and got a couple things, but I just don't recall!

Melissa, love the lunches and I am so into the Goodbyn looking at your cute lunches. Does it fit into a regular lunch box? BTW, I linked back the homemade foodpicks tutorial to your blog.http://bentoschoollunches.blogspot.com/2012/02/sweet-valentines-cupcake-on-sandwich.html.

Hi Rina! The original Goodbyn is really huge and doesn't fit in a lunchbox (only fits in our huge family-sized cooler). But the newer, smaller, Bynto (also by Goodbyn) DOES fit in a lunchbox. It's a wee bit big to fit properly in an EasyLunchboxes cooler bag - it will fit, but sit at a diagonal. However, we have three other regular sized "normal" lunchboxes that is fits into perfectly. Any standard sized rectangle lunchbox will work for it!
